Medicine during a Snowpocalypse, Cardiology, and Risk-and-Benefit Analysis with Dr. Aggarwal

Today we're joined by Dr. Arjun Aggarwal! Dr. Aggarwal is a second-year internal medicine resident in Austin, Texas, who aspires to become a cardiologist. I actually talked to him the day Texas lifted the mask mandate, and he clearly was not a big fan of the decision. We also talk about his time as an internal medicine resident, his interest in cardiology, and his thoughts on social media as free-open-access medical education. He discusses the concept of risk-and-benefit when it comes to treatment - and how physicians need to be able to make difficult decisions. While medication could present some degree of risk, it could also present a large degree of benefit - so how do you decide whether to administer it or not? Dr. Aggarwal illustrates this point through a case of a heart attack during the Texas snowstorm in February.
